Tokens
• We have seen that Tokens are broadly classified as:
– Identifiers
– Keywords
– Constants
– Variables
– Strings
– Operators
– Special character

Constants
Lion
Spanner

Constants
• The entity which do not change throughout
the execution are called constants.
• Types of constants:
– Integer constant
– Character constant
– Floating point constants
– String constants
Name of person remains same through out
the life, example: Amit, Shubnam, etc.

• Character constants
– Constants enclosed in single quotes(‘ ’).
– It can be any letter from character set.
• String Constants
– Set of zero or more characters enclosed in double
quotes (eg: “ ” )
– It is represented as sequence of characters within
double quotes.
Example : “This is C programming”
Example : ‘n’, ‘t’ or ‘a’

• Integer Constants
– When the constant contains only digits without
any decimal part
• Floating Constant
– Constants that contains number with decimal
points
Example : 5;
-987;
Example : 3.14;
309.89

My-Car
In My-Car problem the constant value is 3.14
which is the value of pi and always same.
• pi = 3.14
Therefore:
dist_travelled = 2 * pi * radius.
 pi is a floating point constant.

Variables
Animal
Tool

Variables
• Variable is an entity which may change.
• Variable is used to hold result and reserve
memory for the data.
datatype variable_name;
The naming of variable is done by following
the same rules of identifier naming.
Eg. What is your hobby?
The answer could be reading, dancing, drawing, etc.
So the answer to such questions may change during the life
time of the person

Rules for naming a Variable
1. An variable name is any combination of 1 to 31
alphabets, digits or underscores.
2. The first character in the variable name must be an
alphabet or underscore.
3. No blanks or special symbol other than an
underscore can be used in an variable name.
4. Keywords are not allowed to be used as variables.

Variables
In My-Car problem the variable was
• radius and dist_travelled
It can also be named as
• radius_wheel or r1 or
car_wheel_radius
• Distance or d1 or
dist_by_1rotation

Variables
Let us build some variables:
For speed of car we need to know
• Distance traveled
• Time taken to travel the distance
Variables to be declared as
• Speed, s1, speed_of_car
• Distance, d1, dist
• Time, t1, time_of_travel

See-Saw
• A bit more complex situation see-saw
Variables to be declared as
• Weight_boy, w1, wb
• Distance_boy, d1, db
• Weight_girl, w2, wg
• Distance_girl, d2, dg
• It is to be assessed that at what distance 50Kg girl
should sit in order to balance a boy of 70Kg
sitting 2m away from the center ‘o’
𝑤1 × 𝑑1 = 𝑤2 × 𝑑2
𝑤𝑏 × 𝑑𝑏 = 𝑤𝑔 × 𝑑𝑔

Variable Initialization
• Assigning some value to the variable at
time of creation of variable is known as
variable initialization.
datatype variable_name = value;
Example: int radius= 15;
float pi = 3.14;
char grade = ‘A’;

• What are the entities whose values can be
changed called?
• a) Constants
b) Variables
c) Modules
d) Tokens

• What are the entities whose values cannot
be changed called?
• a) Constants
b) Variables
c) Modules
d) Tokens

Which of the following is true for variable names
in C?
A. Variable names cannot start with a digit
B. Variable can be of any length
C. They can contain alphanumeric characters as
well as special characters
D. Reserved Word can be used as variable name

• Which of the following cannot be a variable
name in C?
• A. TRUE
B. friend
C. export
D. volatile

Expressions
• Expressions are the statements or the instruction
given to computer to perform some operation.
• Every expression results in some value that can
be stored in a variable.
• Following are few example of expressions in
program:
– Expression to calculate speed of a car.
• Speed=distance/time
– Expression to find similarity of two things.
• c=value1>value2

• Expressions in C are basically operators acting on operands.
• An operand is an entity on which operation is to be performed.
• An operator specifies the operation to be applied on operands.
• Expressions are made of one or more operands.
• Statements like :
a = b + c,
++z
300 > (8 * k)
Example: addition of two numbers, 5+8, these numbers will be
operands.
Example: The addition, subtraction, etc will be operators

Types of Expressions
• The type of expression depend upon the type of
operator used in the expression.
• It can be:
– Arithmetic operators.
3 + 6 = 9
4 * 2 = 8
– Relational or logical operators.
height_boy>=height_girl
– Increment and decrement operator.
count=count++

• What is the output of this program?
•
• void main()
• {
• int x = 10;
• float x = 10;
• printf("%d", x)
• }
• A. Compilations Error
• B. 10
• C. 10
• D. 10.1

• What is the output of this program?
• void main()
• {
• int x = 10;
• float x = 10;
• printf("%d", x)
• }
• A. Compilations Error
• B. 10
• C. 10
• D. 10.1

• In this lecture we will study
– Operators
– Types of Operators

Operators
• Operator is the symbol which performs some
operations on the operands.
5+5=10 + and = are the operator and
5 and 10 are operands

Types of Operators
• Types of operators are:
1. Arithmetic operator
2. Unary operator
3. Relational operator
4. Logical operator
5. Assignment operator
6. Conditional operator
7. Bitwise operator
8. Special operator
